What is function of gearbox for marine industry?

The functions of gears in Marine gearboxes main as follows:

1, Acceleration and deceleration, which is often said to be a variable speed gearbox.

2. Change the direction of the transmission. We can get two-segment gears to send the power by verticality to another rotation shaft.

3, Change the moment of rotation. Under the same rate of work, the faster of speed on the gear, its shaft on the torque is less, vice versa, the greater.

4, The function of clutches: to separate the engine from the load, we can separate two meshing gears. For example, like brake clutch and so on.

5. Distribute momentum.?For example, we can reach the function of an engine driving many loads by a working state of the gearbox #spindle drive many vertical axes.
